By default, I post to access list so that only the people I subscribe to can see it. I subscribe to everyone I interact with on this platform, so if you want to see my posts, subscribe and I'll grant access. This is a copy of an old post to give you a sense of what to expect.

По умолчанию я пишу под замок, но даю доступ всем, с кем общаюсь на этой платформе. Это публичный повтор старого поста, привожу его в качестве примера.


Nepo did it again, this time against Gelfand.



The typical heuristics — develop your pieces, don't move the same piece twice, castle, don't push the pawns in front of your king — are again out the window. Link to the full game.

Too bad it's obscured by all the hoopla about Magnus' jeans.

особо ничего он этим не добился, движок оценивает позицию 0.4 в пользу черных

Ну да, последний ход Гелфанда явный ляп

Well, to be honest, it started as a pretty regular Nimzo. I can kind of (which means, not really) explain f3-e4 - one of Nimzo's ideas for Black is to maintain control of e4 (as Nc3 got traded away), and this is probably the most blunt way to shut this down.
But the Ra2-Rf2 maneuver and the subsequent pawn storm on the kingside is crazy. I mean, sure it's been prep, but it's unnatural to play like that. Well, the man did play for the world crown twice, even if he lost both times.

So do I. When I started playing as boring and principled as possible... I started getting beaten slightly less often :). Although I still have fewer chances against an average club player than Nepo himself against Carlsen.
